The invention provides a process for preparing a food flavour by inactivating yeast and carrying out enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in conjunction with fermentation with micro-organisms. Preferably the enzymatic degradation is carried out with more than one enzyme either simultaneously or sequentially.

An electrosurgery instrument having ducts to direct a stream of fluid past the electrode to dissipate the smoke produced in surgery. The instrument can also be provided with a light-transmitting cable to illuminate a region around the electrode.

This invention is a device used when injection moulding objects.It has been difficult to injection mould threaded holes directly in plastic objects. If it must be possible to position the holes arbitrarily in the moulded object, the difficulty level increases.This invention solves these problems in that the mould comprises threaded pins (16) that form holes during the moulding process. The pins co...

A down-hole signal generator for a mud-pulse telemetry system comprises a flow constrictor defining a throttle orifice for the mud passing along a drill string, a throttling member displaceable with respect to the throttle orifice to modulate the mud pressure for the purpose of transmitting measurement data up the drill string, and a turbogenerator. The turbogenerator incorporates an annular impel...

A record-carrier body is described, in which a user can record information by means of optical radiation, which record-carrier body has a relief structure of optically detectable servo-track portions (7) and sector addresses.(6) If the maximum width of the servo-track portions and the areas in the sector addresses is at least of the order of half the track period (P) the servo-track portions can b...

In PCM systems, it is known to convert mu -law digital code words including a sign bit, m characteristic bits, and n mantissa bits representing respectively the polarity, segment value, and quantizing step of a quantized analog sample into a binary floating point representation thereof including a sign, exponent, and mantissa in order to process the digital signal. Known converters are of two rel...

PURPOSE:To reduce the number of external connection terminals and to miniaturize an input device with a high resolution performance by loading plural light emitting elements on a light emitting board, loading further a photodetecting element at the position of a light receiving board corresponding to the light emitting element and setting the input device to a laminated structure that the light em...
